This is in no doubt them pressuring diddy teams to cut us out because we wont give them the broomloan. No coincidence IMO.

All these teams cutting away allocations defeats the purpose of a 12 team league with a split (2 games a year v rangers = more blue pound) get it back to a 16 team league pronto

Not really any easy games in the draw I don't think. Would rather Servette than Genk.

That's a bit extreme, but ultimately he cant be relied on when it counts. Even that goal v them at Ibrox in the 3-0 game.. I've watched that goal 50 times. if I watch it now I'm still not sure he will score.

You could rely on McCoist to turn up and score in the big matches. Cant say the same of Sakala.

Spurs are trying to play hardball over a big fee for Kane. I think this one might come back to bite them.

Don't think Lovelace is eligible either, only been here 1 year. Needs to be 4 years between age of 15-21.

x2. Cup Finals. V Them.

This is it for me when it comes to fashion. When it counts you just can’t rely on him.

Dujon Sterling would have had a half if he was fit

Makes the game look easy. I know it’s a cliche but defo applies here. picks passes in corridor’s so narrow he has no right to pass through

Matondo looks a complete lost cause. Took me a year to get there but he just can’t put anything together at all. Raskin has started poorly. Dowell and Yilmaz look bright.

I agree with you and Graeme of that but part of me thinks we have went out and bought 3 strikers to replace 3 strikers - Morelos - Colak - Roofe a year earlier purely as his fitness can’t be relied on.

The fact we could have signed him for free last season when we decided to instead go for a journeyman in Colak or a Matondo and now we are looking to spend 6 million doesn’t seem wise. Good business by feyenoord for a guy who is a squad player.

Looks like they have followed the Setanta model and the Scottish National Team and domestic cups now will likely be flipped to another broadcaster. Forgot to note they are also the domestic cups sponsor 🤦‍♀️ Another massive L for Scottish football. Scotland national team broadcaster Viaplay announces withdrawal from UK market and cuts workforce | STV News Viaplay has confirmed that it is pulling out of the UK market as part of a major cost-cutting exercise. The Nordic broadcaster currently has the rights to screen and stream all matches involving the Scotland men’s national team from 2024 to 2028 and is title sponsor for the Scottish League Cup. It also shows some Scottish Cup matches. The company says its new strategy involves focusing on its “core, Nordic, Netherlands and Viaplay Select operations”. Some 25% of Viaplay’s staff will be made redundant following the decision. Jørgen Madsen Lindemann, Viaplay’s president and CEO, said: “We are focusing our attention and resources on those markets where we can compete for the long term, and ensuring that our products are relevant, popular and generate healthy returns. “We have had to take a number of immediate decisions for the sake of the future of our business. “The weakness in the advertising markets and currency exchange rates are additional factors that we must live with. “The international expansion assumptions, including the timelines to profitability, have also been pushed materially into the future since the expansion started. We are moving quickly to address all of these challenges.”

Good to see King enjoy a game silently.

Its hard to tell but he already looks like a better defender to my eyes. And a much better footballer. Likes to come inside and gives more passing options. Barisic is quite one dimensional in that either passes down the line or goes backwards. Ridvan is 22 and will improve. Barisic has peaked.

Hope

Goodbye McGregor a legend and a great. Leaves with a load of medals and great memories.

Best player on the park 2nd half

A Rangers da 😂

Anthony Gordon looks decent. 40 million eh

A midfield of Guimares and Tonali. Oh my.

Oh and new season same old Barisic losing his man at the back post 🤔

Our team shape looks all wrong. Players not sure whats going on or suiting their roles. It’s just a friendly but aye. Sandro Tonali (if that’s Newcastles #20) is decent
